Umamah Learning Academy is pleased to announce close to heart Webinar once again....

Here's what some attendees had to say....

Sabrina Z

"Jazakillahu khayran for doing this webinar. I have been following your blog for a few
years and benefited greatly from all the activities and ideas you have shared."

Umm Abdullah"Although I have read almost all the Islamic books regarding raising a Muslim child yet I must say that I am impressed with the knowledge shared in I Love Allah course. I found tips not just for me to work with the kids but for myself too. May Allah increase your love for Him and vice versa!"Umm Safa" 'I love Allah' webinar is a beautiful reminder to increase our love of Allah by engaging in an invigorating way with our kids. Umm Umamah have adorned this creative package with dua, zikr and craft suggestions, bi'ithnillah. I cant get enough of the awe-inspiring poetry in it!!"

I am very happy to announce redoing of an exciting Webinar I did a week ago.

This is going to REVOLUTIONIZE your Homeschooling experience Inshallah!

Testimonial

Umm Abdullah

"I had already attended your lapbooking workshop ( which was totally awesome), so I wasn't expecting any game changer from this course but I was totally wrong! It was just another level Alhamdhulillah. I got such fresh ideas and suggestions and motivation that I actually did use some of those in my homeschool. Couldn't have been happier! Jazaaki Allahu khair"

As a veteran homeschooler, I have learnt many things that
work and faced lots of road blocks & show stoppers....

How many of you can relate to wanting to go ahead with a new
lesson only to find that our lil ones don't remember the earlier lessons
taught... But we need them to remember that for this to make sense... What do I
do now?..Drown in Frustration?..Be Overwhelmed?.... Loose my Temper??? Nooo
Ofcourse not.. we're too good a homeschool moms to do that J

If you can relate to that you need to join me and experience
the same exhilaration I felt and conitnue to feel when I can smoothly go
through those moments without taking away too much for the new lesson
time?

This webinar is all about using some class room tools in a
Homeschool Friendly environment. Anchor Charts & notebooking are THE TOOLS
that I now heavily use for almost ALL Subjects...

How many times do we just fall into Ramadan, scrambling to
manage all that we have to & would like to do. As mothers we sacrifice a
lot of time for our kids, and other household duties on a daily basis. Many a
times mothers feel they can't gain as much from Ramadan as they need to fulfill
the needs & demands of children, or keep children engaged in Ramadan.

In fact, in Ramadan mothers actually end up craving the
"personal Ibadah time" even more, because they know it's such small
pocket of time for gaining EXTRA AJR & EXTRA HASANAT, and just like
everyone less they would like to maximize it too!

This is something ALL MOTHERS can relate to. Depending on
whats happening in our lives and the ages of our children, we find ourselves
combating the SPIRITUAL LOW in Ramadan. I've been there.....many times! More,
than I would have liked to be and it was mostly because, despite my wanting to
I wasn't able to prepare for Ramadan ahead of time. I didn't know exactly what
to do and what not to do. In Ramadan I wanted to feel:

more peaceful

more connected to Allah

more diligent in ibadah

more involved with kids in the spirit of Ramadan

Yet I would find myself feeling sad, sometimes even bitter
for not being able to achieve what I would have liked to in Ramadan. I wan't to
help others not feel that way...... There is a solution. There is a guideline
that we can follow as closely or as loosely as possible, given our own unique
circumstances.

This webinar is for mothers, to enter Ramadan prepared and
focused. It is not only a means of offering ideas, suggestions, reflections
& activities to mothers to consciously involve their children in their
preparation for Ramadan but also to enjoin their kids to be happily engaged
& busy in the spirit of Ramadan, Beidhnillahi Ta'Allah.

If you relate to the above or know someone who needs it
...... Join and encourage others to join

I apologize for the yellow color on posts. I am currently working on changing the look of the blog. Blogger is not allowing me to change color in posts, so I am manullay changing HTML coding in each post. This will take some time.

Thought of adding a new challenge on the blog and making your children participate in it...So here I am calling out to all those Lil rhymers and poetry writers, to send in a Ramadan themed poetry by Friday 27th May.

June 1st 2016

And Guess what Lil Explorers magazine will be sending their special Ramadan edition Issue: 18 to the 3 selected poems! SubhanAllah! How cool is that ?

Jazakallaho Khairun Little Explorers!!!!!! You can check out their webite here.

Little Explorers is one my favorite resources for authentic and beneficial material for kids. It is cute, colorful, informative and very nicely done. May Allah bless and reward the Little Explorer team. Ameen

This post is my commitment to redo the following project with my kids in a different way Inshallah. Once done I will update this post with the new pics Inshallah

NEW PROJECT

COMING SOON BEIDHNILLAH

Salah Centre

The following project will take more than a day to finish but we started out making it today. Inshallah when finished the Salah centre will be put up on the wall in the kids room where my Lil muallims can use is as a reminder of Salah timings, keep their after Salah dua and adhkar booklets and other cards related to Salah.

I took a bristol borad and folded in a 3 parts and cut off an extra strip from the bottom to use inside the salah centre.

Next Lil Muallim # 2 choose shiny craft paper I had lying around to make the cover of the Salah Centre. The cover is actually supposed to signify Bab us Salah the door of Jannah through which those established their prayers on time will enter.

Notice the key hole and the handle? That's for what we made next.......

We made a key with golden card stock and Lil muallim # 2 stuck praying persons coloring on it..... this was to depict the hadithAs salatu miftahul Jannah .....Salah is the key to Paradise.

Inside Lil Muallim # 2 stuck the salah timings clock faces around the booklet on the hadith highlighting the importance of praying on time. Check it out.
